Infinite Warfare Has Less Players Than Farming Simulator on PC

4.6
It looks like Infinite Warfare may at last be the game where Call of Duty well and truly stumbles. Earlier today, we reported that the game had faltered in the UK, losing a lot of sales compared to last year’s Black Ops 3, and being the series’ least impressive debut in the region since the original Modern Warfare– it looks like that kind of general apathy to Infinite Warfare is rather universal.

Overclock3D are reporting that Infinite Warfare is having a very poor showing on the PC at the moment- the game 13,118 concurrent players on PC right now, which not only means that it is doing far worse than perennial Steam Concurrency Chart toppers such as DOTA 2, CS:GO, Civilization 5, Civilization 6, Skyrim, and GTA 5, but that even games like Farming Simulator 17 is currently outdoing it. That’s right, Farming Simulator 17 has more players right now than Infinite Warfare does on PC.

If this is the kind of performance Infinite Warfare will put forth in all markets of the world, across all platforms, then Activision may finally have had their Assassin’s Creed Unity moment, here- hopefully, like Ubisoft, they take a break from releasing more games in the series, and take some time to regroup.

Earn It really doesn't surprise me, no one wants to play a futuristic call of duty anymore. Everyone's playing Modern Warfare Remastered or moved to Battlefield 1 like myself.


Actually MWR on PC is bugged to all hell. Serious performance issues, even people with the Pascal series of GPUs, people are still having really bad frame rate drops, terrible loading times and mouse movement is sluggish and stutters. When I went on yesterday, there were less than 2k people playing the game. Almost every gamemode is dead, except for TDM and Domination, everything else has less than 60 players, if not less than 10 on most sections. When the game first came out with these issues, I said this is what will kill whatever remaining fan base there is for CoD on PC. On launch there were about 13k people playing the game, 10 days later, there are less than 2k. Both IW and MWR had a terrible launch and I don't see either living on much longer. Activision's only hope at this point, is to fix MWR, release it as a separate game to try and pull in some new players and do what they can from there. Hell, they might even have to start "pandering" on their IW game, add more classic weapons if not create a whole gamemode where it's just boots on the ground to try and appeal to people for that game too. I already know DLC sales are going to be abysmal on PC for both games and I don't think zombies will be enough of a reason to save the game like Treyarch was able to lean off of.

If i want to play a futureistic game I would pick StarWars Battlefront, PlanteSite 2 or Titanfall. This is just too much. Yes jetpack were cool feature but this is just too much already.

They need to start creating actual cod games, these new cods are just bad jokes.

TelePosted:

They need to bring back war games without the stupid futuristic features.

I don't even have IW downloaded yet. All I've been playing is MWR.
